What Makes Us Different
“My husband and I used Latitude Concierge Travels as our wedding’s travel coordinator and we could not be more thrilled with our experience. Shalene initially won us over during our first meeting with her joyful laughter and ability to connect with us personally, and she quickly and repeatedly proved herself to be a trusted partner and advocate throughout the entire process. Shalene helped us effortlessly select the location for our destination wedding, which ultimately exceeded both our own and our guests wildest expectations. Her and her team also made booking travel for over 80 guests a breeze. We cannot thank her and her team enough for curating an unforgettable experience. We would highly recommend Latitude Concierge Travels to plan your next vacation - big or small - and especially for any couple interested in planning a destination wedding. Shalene’s expertise & experience served to be an indispensable resource to us in navigating planning for a destination wedding, and she truly went above and beyond every step of the way.

“Can’t exclaim how well Shalene was in helping me choose and book a spectacular anniversary trip to Jamaica. She kept me well informed and even helped with extras to make the trip unforgettable. We were worried about traveling during COVID but Shalene had all the answers and walked us through the process. Would certainly recommend and will be using Latitude Concierge Travels again! Thanks again Shalene, you are fantastic!”
